We're back with "Pixelart for beginners", we got a lot of viewer artwork and will animate more plant growth cycles! Join us on twitch! www.twitch.tv/cyangmou

Folks, check out how we broke the game... ...they are now protecting each other for eternity 😂 Working on the skill system is hard, but super rewarding! 🤓🧛🏻‍♂️ #indiedev #pixelart

Check out the cool deckbuilder my friend made! Mechanics are inspired by Final Fantasy 7's materia system and this adds a few things you never saw in a deckbuilder. Also the project, promotional artwork aside, was entirely made by him. Music and everything, so it's an impressive solodev indiegame!

Like a Novice, we thought one night would be enough... Turns out even this wait feels eternal. We're hard at work on our Steam page. We ask for your patience. 🙏

We're back with "Pixelart for beginners", today we will draw plant growing animations. Join us on twitch! www.twitch.tv/cyangmou

We're back from GIC and stream another episode of "Pixelart for Beginners"! Today we will catch up on checking viewer homework you made while we were at the event. Join us on Twitch: www.twitch.tv/cyangmou

"Pixelart for Programmers", a workshop which I co-hosted with @alemango.bsky.social at Games industry Conference 2025was very positively received. Participants said "We thought you'd show us how to draw, but what you did here was better and much more useful for us!" I am back at home again!

GIC is this weekend! It’s the event that first pulled me into the game industry, and it still feels special. This year I’m doing something new, group coaching for devs 💬✨ If you’re there, let’s meet, talk about games, burnout, or indiedev. ☕ #GIC #gamedev #indiedev #coaching

I will visit Games Industry Conference with @alemango.bsky.social, @kosowski.bsky.social and @akjarosz.bsky.social We prepared together a talk and a workshop on the technical foundations of creating pixelart games.

Happy #PortfolioDay! I am Thomas and I create pixelart for videogames. Currently I am working as an art director in the games industry. On Saturday I co-host "Pixelart for Beginners", a free pixelart course, which is for anyone with the desire to learn how to draw & create this artstyle.

Hey, Folks!👋 We're working on a teaser for the game and we need 🎵 a composer 🎵 We have only 3 requirements: 1.📙Up-to-date portfolio 2.🤖No AI usage! 3 🧛🏻‍♂️A track in the portfolio, which meets the vampiric theme (organs, horror, tension). This is a paid job of course.💵

This is us at GameDevDays Graz. We showed the first ever closed demo of🦇Vampire Tactics🦇. This is us, tired as hell but delighted with the reception of the game and the feedback we got from you, good people! ❤️ Thank you, Graz! ❤️🧛🏻‍♂️ Kamil & Thomas

AI guy steals from artists and @itch.io customer support doesn't do anything since weeks. I sent multiple tickets. Stuff got stolen from: @retronator.bsky.social @slynyrd.bsky.social @saint11.art @sadfaceart.bsky.social @androidarts.bsky.social Take it down: reactorcore.itch.io/deep-pixel-a...

The mystery why there is no "Pixelart for Beginners" today is solved...

"Pixelart for Beginners" is today on a planned break. We announced this already last week, so you got an additional week for preparing your homework. Alex and I are looking forward to see you back next week.

Die Projekte der @fm4.orf.at Indie Area auf der Game City Wien stehen fest! Wir sind begeistert, dass wir dieses Jahr rund 30 Indiegames aus Österreich und Umgebung präsentieren dürfen: fm4.orf.at/stories/3049...

We're live with "Pixelart for Beginners". Today we will draw plant pots - with construction and shading. Join us on twitch: www.twitch.tv/cyangmou

Really nice marketing analysis on pixelart games. Writer knows his datapoint. I was very impressed. opgamemarketing.substack.com/p/so-youre-m...

This marketer pulled data on 6,422 pixel art games released over the last 2 years on Steam. Only 5% cleared 500 reviews. Here’s some fun data on the 5%. www.reddit.com/r/IndieDev/c...

We're live with "Pixelart for Beginners" today we closely look at some games, got an amazing viewer paperdoll system to show off and at the end we will create some spritework. Join us on Twitch: www.twitch.tv/cyangmou

Not today, but next week on Tuesday, (September 9th) we shall meet again for the 92nd Vienna Gamedev Meetup at the Das Packhaus !

Your project is valid, even if it’s small. Even if it’s weird. Even if it’s still unfinished. It matters - because you’re making it. #indiegamedev #gamedev

Hey everyone! I'm currently looking for a pixel artist, preferably one with experience doing isometric art to create a cobblestone path tileset. It would be similar to the kind used in Tactics Ogre, but for 64x32 sized tiles. Paid of course. Post if you're interested! #pixelart #jobs #2dart

Quartet Review: + One of the best written party members of all time + Phenomenal Music + Beautiful Storytelling + Gorgeous Pixel art + Loved the enemies/boss encounters + Engaging Gameplay that make you want to explore every aspect of this game + My Game of the year 10/10 #Gaming

Sometimes, we know we’ll regret it—feel it deep down—but go on anyway. Maybe self-sabotage. Maybe just being human. Love is a Demon is about facing the mess we make. 💀❤️ Make mistakes and play on Steam or itch.io #loveisademon #indiegames #narrativegame #choicesmatter

Pixelart for beginners is live! Today we will create a paperdoll animation for the Occult Office cthulhu sprite below, maybe get around to add some color and also create some more sketches for pets. We got a lot of stuff to do today! www.twitch.tv/cyangmou

More art from Quartet. it's available now on Steam. Once more Decky shows wonderful map-craftmanship. I created the pixelart assets.

After 7 years of development, we are excited that "Quartet" is out now! A series of train robberies. A mysterious deck of cards. A fleet of deadly airships. An accidental mage. Choose from four stories, in any order, and discover how they intertwine in this turn-based RPG!

Some of this is really wild: youtu.be/TkUdkCPDuHc?...

The New Spriters Resource has launched! Go and check it out, watch our announcement video for details, or read our home page update! spriters-resource.com Thank you so much for your patience! Server issues have been somewhat resolved.

I always loved to explore those worlds as I was playing JRPGs on my GBA. A few years ago I had the chance to create some art assets for "Quartet". It will launch soon and looks like it became a really great game over its 5 year dev-cycle. If it looks interesting to you add it to your wishlist!

Pixelart for Beginners: Today we will play 2 pixelart games and later continue with our pet designs. Join us on Twitch: www.twitch.tv/cyangmou

It was really fun painting those eastern German / western Polish inspired retro rpg town tiles. Decky built an amazing map from the art assets.

I’m Alex, a game designer. I know gamedev, indiedev, and solodev. Making games is an extreme sport, and like athletes, devs need coaches too. With my background in psychology, I help indiedevs reach the finish line. DM me, and let's talk about your project. #indiegames #indiedev #gamedev

How to successfully offend graphics artists: - use mixed pixel sizes - stretch & squash pixels - sloppily cut out UI elements with gray leftovers - have leftover colors in outlines - use fonts with really bad kerning - make sure every font has a different size #Youdontneedartdirection

Pixelart for Beginners - we will talk today about designing & sketching with keeping overall feels of the art direction in mind. Join us on Twitch: www.twitch.tv/cyangmou
